OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives

Our aim is to support and empower people living with dementia, their carers and those who may feel lonely or isolated, enabling them to enrich their lives and enhance their wellbeing.

We do this through offering opportunities to connect with others and take part in activities, whilst creating a culture where everyone can contribute and is included.

We provide a service that wraps around the whole family, providing support and information when they need it.

We do this through:

• providing a welcoming and friendly environment where people can come to meet friends, make new friends, share skills, learn skills, have fun and have a meaningful purpose in supporting their local community;

• connecting younger and older people;

• reducing social isolation and loneliness;

• providing a sense of support and of belonging to community life for participants;

• supporting families affected by dementia with information and time for them to be themselves;

• providing opportunities for volunteering.

Additionally, we work to increase awareness of dementia and contribute to making Rossendale more dementia friendly.

Review of activities

The Beacon Shed

We opened the Beacon Shed in May 2023 and it was the first dementia-friendly community shed in the UK, enabling people living with dementia to work alongside people without these challenges, pursuing their interests in a safe and welcoming environment. Our aim was to work with participants to find out what they enjoy and help them to maintain a connection to things they love.

Throughout the year, our participants have worked alongside our volunteers, taking part in a range of activities, including making bird, bat, hedgehogs and cat boxes, planters, wooden Christmas trees, coat hooks, bread boards and candle holders; restoring a garden bench and a dressing room chair; planting seeds and growing flowers and herbs; making bags, collages, fabric flowers, pompom rings and decorating bottle lamps; walking in Whitaker Park; bird watching, squirrel watching; playing games and enjoying socialising. We were pleased to be asked by Civic Pride Rossendale to renovate a giant chair for their entry into Britain in Bloom and we worked with our participants to complete the renovation together. The chair was then placed at the East Lancashire Railway for the Britain in Bloom judging, with the aim of being a friendship chair for people to sit on and chat together.

We opened the Beacon Shed during the first Rossendale Pride event, held at The Whitaker Museum and Art Gallery, and organised by Spectrum Inclusion. This provided an opportunity for people visiting the event to come and get information about dementia and find out about our services.

The first year implementing this new model of care at the Beacon Shed has been a rich learning experience. We have consulted regularly with participants and their families, have learned about the activities each of our participants enjoy and have been able to tailor our programme to meet their needs. We know that family carers have met each other through the Beacon Shed and that these supportive relationships have grown and thrived and carers have helped each other navigate the challenges faced by families affected by dementia.

We have received lots of feedback about the Beacon Shed, which helps us to evaluate the impact of our work and to shape future services:

‘I really love it here I really do everyone is so nice - If I could come to the shed every day I would I just love it!’

‘It’s good to be back I feel like I’m home again.’

We have maintained an active presence on social media to showcase what we do at the Beacon Shed. This helps families to see what their loved ones are doing. One family member provided the following feedback:

‘Thank you so much for sharing. We’ve come to look forward to seeing these videos of dad - he’s just like his old self and is smiling in every one, which is priceless and lovely for us to see. It’s also helpful as we can prompt a conversation with him because we can see what he’s been doing. Dad is really loving these sessions and it is giving him a real sense of purpose. So glad we found out about the work you do.’

Carers' Group

Our Dementia Carers’ Group is a peer support group which brings family Carers of people living with dementia together to meet others in a similar situation and enables them to access information and offer support to each other. These face to face sessions ran until July 2024, and some sessions included a speaker to provide advice on issues such as managing stress within the caring role.

The face-to-face meetings ran alongside the Beacon Activity group, and this facilitated attendance at the Carers Group, as Carers were able to bring their loved ones along to participate in social time and activities with others.

Our ‘virtual’ Carers’ Group continued to run monthly online throughout the year. Carers often find it difficult to attend face-to-face meetings because of their caring responsibilities, so the virtual group proved beneficial for these carers and for carers who live further away.

Carer Support

Funding from the Community Foundation for Lancashire Red Rose Responding Fund, secured during the previous financial year enabled us to run a programme of wellbeing sessions specifically for Carers. These continued this year, and provided opportunities for family Carers to take a short time out from their caring responsibilities and take part in activities to enhance their own wellbeing. Sessions included flower arranging; a felt workshop; painting, pasta making and Tai Chi. Feedback from the sessions was very positive and included:

Thank you for organizing the carers wellbeing sessions I’ve really enjoyed them - getting out meeting people and just having some time for me, it means a lot

I have really enjoyed the felt workshop and getting out of the house for a while.

The carers' well-being sessions have enabled me to meet other carers in a safe group as others in similar situations to myself, and I am able to enjoy the lovely activities that have been professionally arranged. Since attending, I feel that my confidence has increased, I have made friends, widened my support circle and increased my knowledge of other community services.

In December 2024, we were successful in obtaining a grant from one of our local County Councillors, which will provide funding to run further carer wellbeing sessions into the next financial year.

During this year, we have put in place welfare calls to the family carers who access our services. This enables us to check that they are not feeling overwhelmed with their caring role, provide signposting to other local services and build a trusted relationship with them. These calls have been very much appreciated by carers and are now a key part of the support we provide.

Dementia-Friendly Activity Group

We ran our monthly dementia-friendly activity group at The Whitaker up to July 2024. This group provided a safe space for people living with dementia to take part in a range of activities and to socialise. Participants attended either independently, or with their carers, and Carers were able to attend their own support group, which ran alongside these sessions.

Activities included crafting, games, afternoon tea, singing and music and movement. We were delighted to receive positive feedback from these sessions, including:

‘Here is the photo I took of my husband with his turkey that he made. He had a really good time on Friday and thought he wouldn’t sleep because he was so excited about what he made! Thank you!’

We were delighted for the opportunity to visit Woodnook Farm in Dunsop Bridge by Sandra from the Forest of Bowland. The farm is home to the Wood End Alpacas. We took a group of our participants and family carers to the farm and enjoyed patting pigs, grooming a pony, looking at sheep and stroking the wonderful alpacas. The farm was wheelchair accessible which opened the visit up to some of our less mobile participants. We had a wonderful afternoon, enjoying the different sensory activities and learning about alpacas and their wool. The visit finished with a delicious afternoon tea. Visits like these are so important in enabling families affected by dementia to access experiences together that they might otherwise not be able to, and they also help to create precious memories.

Wellbeing Group

Our two weekly wellbeing groups continued to run throughout the year. These social groups bring people together to knit and crochet in a friendly environment. The benefits on personal wellbeing from knitting and crocheting are widely known and these groups continue to attract regular and new members.

The group have undertaken several projects within the year, which have benefited others. They worked with a local charity Veterans in Communities to make poppies to contribute to a display commemorating D-Day in France. They also continued to knit hats for newborns for the Royal Oldham Hospital Warm Baby Scheme, where every newborn baby is given a hand-knitted hat. The group also knitted bereavement hearts to give to families at both Rossendale and Pendleside Hospices, which both accept patients from Rossendale.

Beacon at Home

Following our pilot delivering the Beacon at Home service, kindly funded by the NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board, we evaluated the Beacon at Home service. This service aims to build a trusting relationship through providing a series of one-to-one sessions, delivered in the participant's home. These sessions are structured and tailored to each individual's interests and over time, and aim to build rapport and increase wellbeing. Activities are tailored to each individual’s preferences and needs.

Our evaluation showed that participants and their carers benefitted from this service and that trusting relationships were made, so that family carers felt comfortable and safe in leaving their loved one with our Beacon team member. Participants were able to receive care from a dedicated team member, which assisted with consistency and helped participants to feel comfortable. Feedback included:

‘Thank you so much - you don't know what it has meant to me to be able to walk my dog without rushing and worrying about my mum and dad. It’s been the best 2 hours I've had in a long time!’

‘I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt he really looks forward to your visit and the fact that he remembers that makes us really happy. He's perked up - he was very down before you started coming. He has bad days, but he seems more positive’

‘Dad really looks forward to his time with the staff member - they have built a good friendship over the time they’ve been coming. It helps his mental health and wellbeing. We as a family really appreciate all that Beacon have done for dad and mum whilst she was alive.’

This service has continued throughout the year and provides some income for the charity.

Rossendale Dementia Information Event

We delivered the third Rossendale Dementia Information event in September 2024, choosing to run this in Bacup – a different part of the Borough. This has now become an annual event which brings dementia services and community groups together in one place to enable families to access the information they need more easily. The event was again well-supported by a wide range of statutory and non-statutory services and community organisations. The event was supported by an extended visit by the Worshipful Mayor of Rossendale, and there was musical entertainment which was sponsored through a Local Member Grant from County Councillor Samara Barnes.

Visitors expressed that it was great to have all the services under one roof, as it was often difficult to access. Stallholders also valued the opportunity to network and learn about the range of services available to people living with dementia and their families.

Volunteering

We have retained our volunteers and increased the number of volunteers during the year. We celebrated Volunteer’s Week to express our gratitude for the time and skills they give freely to the charity. We are extremely grateful to all our volunteers for their consistent work for our beneficiaries.

Fundraising and Grants

Our main aim for grant funding and fundraising this year was to enable us to continue to provide and develop our services for families affected by dementia across Rossendale and East Lancashire. We were fortunate to have received substantial donations during 2023 from Mr John and Mrs Yvonne Malley, to staff the Beacon Shed for two years. Our focus during the year has been to look forward to raising grant funding to help with staffing the Beacon Shed and our services, and at the end of the financial year, we were awaiting a decision on a grant from the National Lottery Reaching Communities Programme, to support this and to create three dementia information hubs.

We received a National Lottery Awards for All grant in year to deliver our Carer’s Groups for a period of 2 years, both online and face-to-face, and we are very grateful for players of the National Lottery for supporting our work in this area.

We were delighted to have been chosen as one of the Mayor of Rossendale’s nominated charities for the 2023-24 Mayoral year, and in May 2024, we were presented with a wonderful donation by the Worshipful Mayor of Rossendale, Councillor Andrew Walmsley. His successor, Councillor Judith Driver was also tremendously supportive during the year, attending the Beacon Shed and also opening our Rossendale Dementia Information event.

The Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner awarded us a grant to install CCTV to cover both the Shed and the area at the rear of The Whitaker, and to improve the security of the gates to the area. Work was completed to install all these security measures in year, and we are very grateful for the improvements.

We were successful in obtaining a grant from the ASDA Foundation to help to create the Beacon Garden which borders the Beacon Shed. This will provide an area which will not only be lovely to look at, but will include sensory plants and a seating area for our beneficiaries to enjoy. It will also contribute to improving this area of the grounds of The Whitaker Museum and Art Gallery. At the end of the year, we also received the news that we had secured a further grant from the Tesco Stronger Starts campaign to provide further funding to create the Beacon Garden. One of our Trustees, Mrs Janet O’Driscoll, sadly lost her mother and her brother at the beginning of the year, and kindly donated the funeral collections to the charity to provide plants for the new Beacon Garden. Our thanks go to her and her family and friends for their kind donations.

Thanks also go to the family and friends of Mrs Yvonne Gledhill, who kindly chose Beacon as the recipient of her funeral donations.

We have been fortunate to work throughout the year with the Community Champions from both ASDA and Tesco stores in Rossendale. We are grateful for the use of the community room at ASDA Rawtenstall for our Friday Wellbeing Group and to all the Community Champions for their donations of food and drink to support our Beacon Shed participants, raffle prizes, and the opportunity to fundraise in store.

We received a range of other donations from local businesses, beneficiaries, and online platforms, all of which have contributed towards running our services. We and our beneficiaries are incredibly grateful for these.

Connections

We are firmly rooted within the Rossendale community and have continued to work with the Rossendale Connected movement to maintain and strengthen the connections we have with statutory services and other groups in the VCFS sector.

Our Rossendale Dementia Information Event enabled us to continue to build positive relationships with statutory services and VCFS organisations across East Lancashire to help to link and co-ordinate services for families affected by dementia.

Public benefit

The trustees are confident that the charity offers services of real and practical use to the local population and therefore complies with the responsibility placed on all charities under the Charities Act 2011, to demonstrate a public benefit.

Plans for the future

We aim to continue to run our services, but will try to expand our reach to enable more beneficiaries to access our services. We will do this by moving away from delivery in one area and run groups and activities across the Borough. We intend to do this through pop-up events and information stands at accessible locations.

Our beneficiaries have told us that they like to be involved in activities where both people living with dementia and their carers can participate together. We intend to run a series of social events where this can be achieved and where we can provide signposting and support as appropriate.

We will continue to run our Dementia Carers Group online and re-introduce face-to-face meetings for carers.

Our programme of Carers wellbeing sessions will extend into the next year, providing opportunities and activities which enable Carers to take time out for their own wellbeing.

We will continue to develop our Beacon at Home Service to enable more beneficiaries to access the service, take part in home-based meaningful activity and to provide respite for their family Carers.

Families of people living with dementia continue to tell us that they struggle to access information easily and in one place. We will deliver the fourth Rossendale Dementia Information Event in September 2025, and will, subject to funding, open a weekly dementia hub at the Beacon Shed, to provide a consistent place to access information on dementia and the services available locally.

We will maintain and develop our connections with other services to help to secure a joined-up approach across the Borough.

We aim to continue to support our valuable volunteers and to recruit more volunteers to help deliver our services and support our beneficiaries. We also aim to recruit at least one further volunteer trustee.
